Worth a look at

This guy doesn't get into too much detail about axles or the like but it's work a look at. If that doesn't bring a smile to a Ford guy's face I don't know what will.

Yep, that there sure is a purdy truck!

Unfortunatly, I will never bid. Seller has 2 negative & 1 positive. Doesn't seem very reputable right now.

I would be affraid to turn into my driveway in fear of ripping off the fenders with that thing.

16" lift and 49" tires = big clearance problems. Looks ok sitting there though.

Vehicle is in good condition for how big it is, yet there are minor defects such as the tires have cuts in them due to them hitting the fenders and the steering wheel is tilted due to the hydraulic steering setup and also one of the tv's is broken.
Yeah, bigtime clearance issues with that lift/tire combo.

And I don't think that he is running crossover steering or trac bar relocation..........which he should be......he's a member of another truck site.

I was looking for some pics of front steering and suspension but couldn't find any. Rear shock set up looks cheesey too. All I found was an album of every car in his neighborhood parked under it. Hmm . . . guess bidders are supposed to be satisfied with the fact that the truck doubles as a garage.

Yeah, check out the clearance.. ahhh!

He even says on there that tires have cuts in them from fenders! I would be afraid to go over a speed bump!

Oh well - - we know why he is selling...

Although I have personally seen a psd with a 6" lift and 46"s. Belongs to 4wheel and off road. That is a fairly nice truck that they have beat the snot out of on some pretty heavy trails. Break out the sawzall and lower that thing a bit. Proeliater, who has the pic of the sawzall with the legend"ya, that will fit!"? And what is a proeliater?Is that a liater that has lost it's amateur status?

Ho' has that pic of the sawzall.

Proeliator is Latin for Warrior. I have it on one of my tattoos and use it for my alias everywhere. Stems from 17 years of Kenjutsu & Kempo and my general bad attitude.

Thanks Yeti. Yea, the 70s era Fords are my favorite by far. Although I always thought it might be cool to put an old 50s body style on it if I ever trash the cab totally. Nice smack down you flung that mini van
